Big Mac, a Humorous Look

Here’s something to TiVo during tonight’s basketball game — a humorous (no kidding!) half-hour look at the rebuilding of the MacArthur Maze after last year’s meltdown due to a tanker fire. (“Amazing: The Rebuilding of the MacArthur Maze”, KQED, 7:30 p.m.)

As you might remember, it was rebuilt in something like a month’s time. The piece was made Bay Area filmmaker David Brown, last heard from a year-and-a-half back with his documentary about a 95-year-old surfer, “Of Wind and Waves: The Life of Woody Brown.”

The film is also a portrait of becoming-legendary contractor C.C. Myers, who did the job. To say that he’s somewhat of a character is an understatement.
